Information about Petersburg's new library project

First, we start with the funding…

It’s easy to dream up a plan for a beautiful library. It’s much harder to find the money to build it. Rather than starting with the dream, this time we’ll be starting with the money first.

The library will be working with the Foraker Group’s Predevelopment program to come up with a realistic funding plan for a new library that includes a grant funds, local fundraising, and a municipal contribution. Once we have a realistic plan for funding. then we go to the architect and see what kind of library we can afford to build.
